GWYNETH & CHRIS

Paltrow has remained Martin's No. 1 fan since she gave him her number backstage at a Coldplay show in 2002, just a year before they married in an intimate Santa Barbara, Calif., ceremony. Announcing their split on March 25, 2014, via Paltrow's Goop blog, they promised to put their two children (Apple, 10, and Moses, 8) first, adding, "We are, however, and always will be a family."

Both Gwyneth and Monique Lhuillier have enviable outfits at the star's Goop boutique opening in Dallas, but it's the movie star's look we dare you to try. The one-shoulder jumpsuit, sparkly-heeled pumps and unexpected Jennifer Meyer turquoise danglers all add up to a flattering, and subtly spirited, ensemble.

For The Imagine1day Gala in Beverly Hills honoring her workout guru Tracy Anderson, Gwyneth wears a white crop top and black skirt (fun fact: her Alice + Olivia design is connected in the back by a lace panel!) and flaunts a sliver of incredibly toned abs (courtesy of the night's honoree, no doubt). She tops it all off with red lipstick and a coordinating clutch.

THE ONES YOU CAN WALK IN

Remember when Gwyneth Paltrow went "punk" in a pink gown for the Met Gala? We think she's adding a similarly Gwyneth-y "edge" to her plaid shirt and mini with Saint Laurent sunnies and sturdy low-heeled boots.

Not everyone at amfAR feels the need to bare everything. Gwyneth takes the tailored-chic route in a menswear-inspired Tom Ford suit (with a flash of skin at the back – she is still Gwyneth, after all!).

"This brilliant singer-songwriter has sold 8 million records, has won every single award that there is to be won, especially Father of the Year, which he has won consecutively since 2004."– Gwyneth Paltrow, praising ex Chris Martin in an introduction before his amfAR Inspiration Gala performance

A sleeveless white mini in October? If it works for Gwyneth, it works for us! Beachy waves and strappy bronze Nicholas Kirkwood sandals top off her Versace dress/shorts combo at the PSLA Autumn party in L.A.

This sleek Monique Lhuillier silhouette is classic Gwyneth, but the black lace and deep-red lip she chooses for the opening night of The Country House on Broadway in N.Y.C. adds a vampy quality that feels fresh for the star.

GWYNETH PALTROW: 2011

While Nina Dobrev's gown had jaws dropping, Gwyneth's Emilio Pucci number had eyebrows raising, thanks to the bare midriff and open back – a bold pick for the mom of two. While we're still split about whether exposed abs belong at a black tie event, we all agree that if anyone can pull it off, it's Gwyneth.

VIVICA VS. GWYNETH

There are two types of crop top wearers: The ones who show off a slice of skin (like Vivica, who pairs her Jason Wu design with a high-waist pencil skirt), and the ones who show off full-on navel (see: Gwyn). And there is one type of person who owns this crop top: someone with $3,327 to burn.

While the rest of us are breaking out our whites, Gwyneth goes with all-black, a silky mini under a boucle jacket and chunky ankle boots at the Poetic Justice Fundraiser for the Coalition for Engaged Education in Santa Monica, Calif.

Sun, sand, sky… It's easy to get vacation FOMO while looking at this idyllic beachy pic of Team Paltrow in the Bahamas. No wonder the actress feels so fortunate. "#tbt #luckiestmomever #exumas," enthused the actress of her seaside cuddle with kids Moses, 8, and Apple, 9.

FASHION ELITE

A month before turning 22 on Feb. 27, Chelsea looked at ease – alongside Gwyneth Paltrow and Madonna – at a 2002 Versace show in Paris. Between whispers with her front-row pals, she exclaimed "wow" as models sashayed down the runway. But it was the former First Daughter – debuting a sleek new bob, smoky eye makeup and a chic Versace pantsuit – who sparked that reaction from the fashion in-crowd.

GWYNETH PALTROW, 1996

If Gwyneth's Goop newsletter had existed 18 years ago, we imagine she would have written about how chic it is to pair animal-print coats with button-downs and maxis. And she'd probably do a limited-edition Gwyn x Converse collection.

If Paltrow and soon-to-be ex Martin are the example of what conscious uncoupling looks like, well, it doesn't look so bad. Just one day before the couple of 10 years announced they were separating on March 25, they headed off to the island of Eleuthera in the Bahamas to escape the limelight. "I just thought they were on vacation," an observer at the North Eleuthera airport told PEOPLE. "They didn't seem happy or unhappy."

"When I'm home with my kids I'm still just Academy Award winner Gwyneth Paltrow."– Gwyneth Paltrow, in a deadpanned joke about how her 1999 Shakespeare in Love win doesn't define who she is, in the "Reflecting on Oscar Reflections" segment of The Ellen DeGeneres Show

Maybe Gwyneth saw how well you all responded to the sequin dress she wore last week (83% approval rating!) and decided to go for an encore performance. She picks a dazzling Saint Laurent mini and pointy-toe booties for the Great American Songbook event in N.Y.C.

IN GOTH THEY TRUST

Just like angst-ridden teens, Angelina Jolie and Gwyneth Paltrow tried the goth thing at the 2000 and 2002 Oscars, respectively. Though it was par for the course for Versace-clad Jolie, who at the time was wearing Billy Bob Thorton's blood in a vial around her neck, it marked "a pretty major fashion misstep" for Paltrow, who later admitted as much in her GOOP newsletter.

Never one to miss an opportunity to remind us of her dedication to fitness, the actress wears a cobalt blue neoprene dress with a midsection cutout and black leather trim by David Koma at the Hollywood Stands Up to Cancer event in Culver City, Calif.

GWYNETH VS. GISELE

With winter storm Janus hitting hard, we wish we had Gwyneth and Gisele's cozy FAY parka. We also wish we had their hair, their bodies and their lives in general, but that's another topic for another time.

GWYNETH: THE ALLERGY-FREE DIET

Gwyneth Paltrow shares the restorative recipes she turns to when she needs to lose weight and boost her energy in her book It's All Good. That means cutting out foods that are deemed bad: bread, deepwater fish, chicken eggs, sugar and red meat.THE PLAN: Gwyneth kicks off every day with a green juice pumped full of kale, apple, lemon, mint and ginger. Lunch could be a beet-greens soup, followed by a snack of almonds soaked in water (which digest better than raw) and then a BBQ chicken dinner using her own paprika-spiced recipe.

Looking quite tame in comparison at the same event, Gwyneth opts for a simple Prada number with a fitted pink-and-maroon sweetheart top and a black pleated skirt. She sneaks in a bit of bling courtesy of her Boucheron earrings.

DEMI & GWYNETH

"Apple! Check out who was on my flight!" TweetedGwyneth Paltrow about this shot with Demi Lovato, of whom the actress's daughter is a big fan. The singer also Tweeted about the encounter, "I'm sitting in an airport lounge and Gwyneth Paltrow is across the room. Had I not seen Contagion 10 times I'd probably be excited," before adding, "Gwyneth P. is SO nice!!! She wanted a picture with ME?!!! #COOL."

GWYNETH PALTROW

The always-stylish star gets an early start on the winter-white trend, arriving at the Hollywood premiere of Thanks for Sharing in a full-skirted dress with sleek black Nicholas Kirkwood sandals and a bold red lip.

GWYNETH & APPLE

The "Apple" doesn't fall far from the tree! PEOPLE's 2013 World's Most Beautiful Woman shares more than just an easy breezy style with her 9-year-old daughter. Paltrow and daughter Apple also have a similar low-key beauty routine. "When we're home sometimes, she'll put on mascara. And sometimes I'll let her wear something out to dinner – but just a little dab."
